Three Daves
by~ Nicki Elson
Synopsis~
Jennifer Whitney was the last American virgin. At least that’s what she felt like in 1986 as she began her sophomore year at Central Illinois University. She was proud of her decision to wait for the right guy, and yet she was getting restless. It seemed like everyone around her was doing it... and having fun doing it, too. She didn’t want to become the campus slut or anything, but surely there was a difference between a trashy skank and a nice girl with a little experience. Perhaps it was time to stop relying on fate to guide her and instead take matters into her own hands. And with that realization, Jen decided to find “the one” and lose her virginity, although not necessarily in that order...
Amy's Thoughts~
In Nicki Elson's Three Daves, we meet Jen - NOT Jenny. Jen is the proverbial "good girl". Jen is in college living with her 3 girl friends. One night on spring break, Jen realizes that she is surrounded by sluts! She starts to wonder if holding on to her virginity is such a good idea. Especially, when her future husband will obviously have tons of experience.
She turns to her best guy friend, David for help. David is awesome. They hang out, they can talk about everything. When he needs a shoulder she's there & vice versa.
Along the way, we meet Dave, the "super senior", who dabbles in a little bit of everything. And Big D - David - who is the BMOC. He seems like 'the perfect guy'. And you think it's a perfect match, but is it?
Set in the 80s, we follow along with Jen & her Three Daves, from freshman year up until graduation. You will totally feel like your back in the 80s with the big hair, jam boxes, and free range fun. Ms. Elson did a fantastic job of bringing the 80s back to life and sucking us in with Jen's wit and inner monologue! Three Daves is a laugh out loud romance that will keep you smiling. Don't miss this charming read from Nicki Elson, you will definitely feel like you're in a time warp!
About the author~
Writing wasn't something Nicki set out to do; it just sort of happened when she realized writing reports was by far her favorite part of her investment consulting position. She traded stock allocation and diversification for story arcs and dialogue and now weaves her creative writing time in with the other activities of her busy life with her family in the Chicago suburbs.
Nicki writes with two goals in mind: #1 to keep the characters realistic, even when their circumstances are anything but, and #2 to make the reader feel. Her published works include Three Daves, a light-hearted romantic romp through a 1980s college campus, Divine Temptation, a romantic novel of angelic proportions, and short stories “Sway” (available as a single), “I Don’t Do Valentine’s Day” (part of A Valentine Anthology), and “Impressionism 101” (included in the debut issue of Insatiable: The Magazine of Paranormal Desire).
